Just curious as to why no one mentioned the passing of actress Eleanor Parker ("The Baroness" in "The Sound of Music") and "The Man with the Golden Arm"?...

I think you're a bit late to the party. There were at least two threads on her passing.

Who is Eleanor Parker and why are they saying those terrible things about her?

The Beatles wrote a song about her, I think.

She kept her teeth in a glass by the door.

Who was it for?

That's it!

She kept her head in a bag by the car.

Didn't go far.

Her brothers put out great games. I hear they're releasing a The Sound of Music monopoly board game.

Parker Posey idolized her so much that she took Eleanor's name as a stage name.

She's Spider-man's aunt, right?

No, no I think she played someone called The Red Baroness in The Sound of Mueslix.

I enjoyed the line in SNOOPY when he screamed, "CURSE YOU REB BARONNESS!"

That was Faye Dunaway's only really well acted role. When she gets all those bullet holes shot in her, I really believed Faye was shot. I almost forgave her for all the crime she committed.
